jims books reading & stuff | The Hercule Poirot Mystery Book Tag (in memory of Alice) #booktube @jimsbooksreadingandstuff | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
The Booktube community was shocked and saddened to learn of the passing of Alice, who had the channel @AliceandtheGiantBookshelf
